Cubs have played mediocre baseball for the last 2 months, so stop touting them as some World Series contender.

Remember that the Ricketts promised to deliver a World Series to Chicago.

That “a” is the key part of the statement.

And yes, it really doesn’t help that the World Series win opened up a portal to a Hell that we are still mired in nine years later. Didn’t even get to celebrate it for a week.

Why have I not gone to a game in two seasons now?

Because of this. I’m not spending far too much money to watch a team that peaks way too early every single year.

Jed Hoyer did what he set out to do:

Get paid.

Tom Ricketts did what he set out to do:

Get paid.

Wins and losses don’t matter to them, just fat checks.

That Jed Hoyer extension is turning into one of the great Chicago Sports comedy bits.

It’s also such a funny childish idea of relationships when you think about it. His great insight is that people are fun to hang out with when you know nothing about them. As if someone’s morals and principles are dismissible parts of who they are.

We’ve discovered a literal miracle with almost unlimited potential and it’s being scrapped for *no reason whatsoever*. This isn’t even nihilism, it’s outright worship of death and human suffering.

I remain shocked how many people fall for human interest stories that are obviously not real.

Going with the abbreviation for my job title, “CDM,” for extra mystery.

The shirt that says "GARDENER" is an absolutely fucking incredible (and very true-to-life) detail. I wish everybody had to wear a shirt that had their job title on it.

i have been thinking a lot about how the entire concept of “the deal” is antithetical to transparency, fair play and rule of law, as larry notes. the deal is necessarily nonstandard, ad hoc and dependent on the whims of the dealmaker

I fear this is only going to encourage an inflatable giant Trump industry to start.

Take a look at the first two posters... I've never seen an elected official or political appointee on federal job material before but we really need to weed out all of these people from our government.
